This has literally been my experience! I’ve submitted near 100 applications and NOTHING! I’m 20, living at home with my parents breathing down my neck and saying how lazy I am for not getting a job while NO ONE will fucken hire me! I’ve even done walk in interviews and STILL NOTHING! I don’t know what to do anymore and feel like I’m stuck in hell. Cant leave this house cuz I’m broke, can’t get a car cuz I’m broke, can’t pay my crazy medical bills cuz I’m broke. College for me is over after this semester if I can’t get at least minimum wage employment and what do ppl say to me when I complian? WHY DONT YOU JUST GET A JOB!!? I’m so tired, I’m so done, just end me now.
Protip: Fuck your medical bills. At least for now. Low, low, low priority.
What qualifications do you have? What experience? What are your skills? If you don’t have answers to those questions, whats your game plan to answer them? For obvious reasons I’m biased, but IT is an amazing field to try and enter right now if you’re able to bear down and learn material for Comptia certifications.
I actually took the comptia cert test in 9th grade, only problem was I was not told before hand I couldn’t have anyone else walking infont of the camera while I was doing it, as I was using the family PC at the time it was smack dab in the midlle of a hallway that everyone used. So they failed me. But yea my major is cybersec, so I’ve got a good career if I can’t pay for it. As for the medical stuff, I have a rare ear tumor called cholestiatoma that needs to be operated on so there’s that. Sorry if it sounds like all I’m doing is removed but life seems pretty hopeless right now. On the bright side I am working on a game I plan to release in a couple of months!
